Clinton IT Aide Who Defied Subpoena Says He Created A Cryptic Gmail Account And Sent It Nearly All
Daily Caller ^ | 8/16/2019 | Luke Rosiak

All but four of Hillary Clinton’s 30,000 emails were copied, likely secretly, to a Gmail address called CarterHeavyIndustries@gmail.com, according to a new Senate report.

The FBI says that the account was linked to Paul Combetta, an IT aide Clinton hired who used BleachBit to destroy emails after they were subpoenaed and misled FBI agents.

Combetta said he sent all of her emails to the Gmail account as part of trying to copy them to a new server. Combetta was copying Clinton’s emails off of an old laptop that he was supposed send back in the mail, but there’s no evidence he returned it, according to the Department of Justice Inspector General.

When an intel agent discovered the copying to a third-party account, he said Peter Strzok seemed disinterested. The intel agency feared the email account could be a link to a foreign power, but the FBI refused to explain it to them.

Virtually every single one of Hillary Clinton’s emails were sent, potentially secretly, to a cryptically named Gmail address, according to a new Senate report.

The finding, which has not been previously reported, means that Clinton’s emails, including classified ones and ones which were later deleted, likely existed on Google’s U.S.-based servers. The FBI said in the report that it knew this — and of the suspicious explanation for it — but did not alert other intelligence agencies or the public, according to the report.

The FBI says that the suspicious Gmail address was set up by an IT aide, Paul Combetta, who worked for a company that managed Clinton’s server. Combetta is the same IT aide who used BleachBit to permanently erase copies of Clinton’s emails after they were subpoenaed by the House, misled the FBI about it, and was given immunity from prosecution, all while...

Wasn’t that gmail address connected somehow to a Chinese controlled company.?? If so, this guy is gonna have a terrible time explaining that he just picked out a gmail address at random and had no idea about the end product use.

An IT pro copies his client’s mailbox one email at a time to an outside vendor for data transfer? BS. If he did he should be fired for utter incompetence.

That was my first thought. I've been in the Corporate IT world for over 25 years, and I found this method to be one of the dumbest things I've heard and I've seen some pretty stupid IT processes.

Yep.

But if you give immunity to “get a big fish” knowing you’ll subsequently drop investigating the big fish too it’s a handy way to cover everything up and make it go away.

Rep. Jim Jordan questions FBI director James Comey about Paul Combetta, the Clinton IT staffer who was granted immunity for his role in deleting emails from her private server. A Reddit account was recently uncovered by online sleuths containing posts where Combetta asked for advice in deleting names from the to/from fields of a "very VIP" email account.

REP. JIM JORDAN: Here's the takeaway in my mind: [Cheryl] Mills gets a heads up in mid-summer of 2014. July 23, the day before Mr. Combetta's Reddit post, the House Benghazi Committee and the State Dept. reached an agreement on production of documents. Mills has a conversation with Paul Combetta. He goes on Reddit then, and tries to figure out how he can get rid of all this email. Even though he is not successful then, he has to do it later on with BleachBit. And then the clincher: Just last week, he's going online and trying to delete these Reddit posts. He's trying to delete his tracks. He's trying to cover up the cover-up.

I guess the question is: In light of all this, are you thinking about reopening the investigation?

FBI DIRECTOR COMEY: I may have misunderstood the question, I don't understand that to be about deleting the emails, but rather deleting from the 'from' line the actual email address. Maybe I misunderstood you.

JORDAN: The same guy later took BleachBit and did delete the emails. The guy you gave immunity to, the guy who took the Fifth in front of us, is online trying to figure out how to remove email addresses (change evidence). That guy who later used Bleachbit, who won't testify in front of Congress, has correspondence with [Hillary Clinton chief of staff] Cheryl Mills, a subject of the investigation. Cheryl Mills, who also got some kind of immunity agreement. Cheryl Mills, who walked out for part of the questions during her interview with the FBI.

Seems to me that is pretty compelling, and the timeline is pretty compelling as well.

COMEY: I'm not following. Compelling of what? There is no doubt that Combetta was involved in deleting emails.

JORDAN: After conversations with Cheryl Mills?

COMEY: He had the 'Oh S-H-I-T' moment as he told us. And that is why it was very important for us to interview this guy. To find out who told him to do that, why did you do that. That is why he was given immunity...

JORDAN: The guy is trying to cover-up the Reddit posts where he is trying to figure out how he can cover up the email addresses. I find that compelling, especially considering the day before he was talking to Cheryl Mills about how the State Dept. is on notice about how the Benghazi Committee wants these very documents. I find that compelling. Obviously the FBI didn't.

I really doubt this escaped him. This was deliberate.

What I don’t understand is that it isn’t even a question that the Espionage Act has been torn to shreds here and NOBODY is in prison, not even a charge!

How is that possible?

So it’s a good assumption that the Chinese actually got a laptop with all of Clintons e-mails. Perfect. They were copied and delivered by somebody Clinton herself hired.

How much did China donate to the Clinton Foundation again?

A lot of interesting things come up for Paul Combetta if you search his name using Bing.com. Note, if you use Google much of this info does not appear. There are reports his house was raided on June 2, 2019. And, back in 2016 he was asking Reddit users how to delete a “very VIP” email address from documents.

How is that possible?

Everything is possible once BOTH parties throw out the Constitution and allow an ineligible usurper to occupy the White House.

TS-SCI being copied to a gmail account.

Everyone involved with this should be shot. Or burned alive as a warning to others who might consider this level of depraved indifference.

True to that!!!
The UniParty, and all those involved with promoting this farce for POTUS, should be completely held accountable for all of that...but never will. Just vote em out is about all that can be done.
